Hey Larocco

(album: Wide Awake - 2018)

I don't wanna go outside
Tonight I wanna kill some time
Unlike every time I've done before
On a clear day you might see me
In a cage on the yellow brick road
Wishing I had someone to adore

All the trouble I can find in Baltimore
But don't let me die behind this iron door

Hey Larocco, why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble, don't you fail me now
I'm the only ace around
I know you wanna bring me down
But hey Larocco

I believe it was a Friday night
Charlie Avenue bullfight
A lightning bolt to Mike Lorocco's head
He was angry at a friend of mine
I'ma save you when I have the time
The Jesus freaks they taught me everything

But I swear to God, he died there in the street
And now this iron door is closing down on me

Hey Larocco, why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble, don't you fail me now
I'm the only ace around
I know you wanna bring me down
But hey Larocco

I bet you and your mama think
I got a big gold rock in the bank
But just because I dress like them
It don't mean I was made of million
What about the little kid I was saving
He was the one misbehaving
And now I lay on the concrete floor
Behind the 9 foot iron door

Hey Larocco, why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble, but please, brother, don't you fail me now

Hey Larocco, why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble, don't you fail me now
I'm the only ace around
I know you wanna bring me down
But hey Larocco

Hey Larocco
Hey Larocco
Oh, hey Larocco
Oh, hey Larocco
